We already have the server running and everything works fine, but reading many FAQs and tutorials and what not on adding more accounts I have no idea how to add another email account to our current list.
"userdb" is one of several authentication and user info repositories supported by Courier. However, if the userdb files don't exist, then that's not the one that you're using.
The first thing that I would check is whether your domain is listed in the etc/courier/locals file, or the etc/courier/hosteddomains file.
If it's in locals, then you're *probably* using normal system authentication. If that's the case, then you can add new accounts using the 'useradd' command on your system. That will create the user's account and home directory (including the Maildir, as long as someone put one in /etc/skel. If not: 'maildirmake /etc/skel/Maildir' before you create new users). After adding the account, you'll just need to set the password with the 'passwd' command. Read the man pages for useradd and passwd.
If the domain is in hosteddomains, then you're probably using one of the other authentication modules, which may be MySQL, PostgreSQL, or LDAP. You'd need to look at the configuration files for each of those modules to see which has been configured, and then determine what tools were installed to manage users and passwords in that database.
